< 2 Mojžišova 2 >

1 Odšed pak muž jeden z domu Léví, vzal dceru z pokolení Léví.
And there went a man of the house of Levi, and took a daughter of Levi.
2 I počala žena ta, a porodila syna; a viduci, že jest krásný, kryla ho za tři měsíce.
And the woman conceived, and bore a son; and when she saw him that he was a goodly child, she hid him three months.
3 A když ho nemohla déle tajiti, vzala mu ošitku z sítí, a omazala ji klím a smolou; a vložila do ní to dítě, a vyložila do rákosí u břehu řeky.
And when she could no longer hide him, she took for him a box of bulrushes, and daubed it with slime and with pitch; and she put the child therein, and laid it amidst the flags by the brink of the river.
4 A postavila sestru jeho zdaleka, aby zvěděla, co se s ním díti bude.
And his sister placed herself afar off, to ascertain what would be done to him.
5 A v tom sešla dcera Faraonova, aby se myla v řece; a děvečky její procházely se po břehu řeky. A uzřevši ošitku mezi rákosím, poslala děvečku svou, a vzala ji.
And the daughter of Pharaoh came down to wash herself at the river; and her maidens walked along by the side of the river; and when she saw the box among the flags, she sent her maid and fetched it.
6 A když otevřela, uzřela dítě; a aj, plakalo pacholátko. A slitovavši se nad ním, řekla: Z dětí Hebrejských jest toto.
And she opened it, and saw the child, and, behold, it was a weeping boy; and she had compassion on him, and said, This is one of the Hebrews' children.
7 I řekla sestra jeho k dceři Faraonově: Mám-li jíti a zavolati tobě chůvy z žen Hebrejských, kteráž by odchovala tobě dítě?
Then said his sister to Pharaoh's daughter, Shall I go and call thee a nurse of the Hebrew women, that she may nurse for thee the child?
8 Odpověděla dcera Faraonova: Jdi. Tedy šla děvečka a zavolala matky toho dítěte.
And Pharaoh's daughter said to her, Go; and the maiden went and called the mother of the child.
9 I řekla jí dcera Faraonova: Vezmi toto dítě, a odchovej mi je; a jáť dám mzdu tvou. I vzala žena dítě, a chovala je.
And Pharaoh's daughter said unto her, Take away this child, and nurse him for me, and I will give thee thy wages; and the woman took the child, and nursed him.
10 A když odrostlo pachole, dovedla je k dceři Faraonově, kteráž jej měla za syna; a nazvala jméno jeho Mojžíš, řkuci: Nebo jsem ho z vody vytáhla.
And the child grew up, and she brought him unto Pharaoh's daughter, and he became to her as a son; and she called his name Moses; and she said, Because out of the water have I drawn him.
11 I stalo se ve dnech těch, když vyrostl Mojžíš, že vyšel k bratřím svým, a hleděl na trápení jejich. Uzřel také muže Egyptského, an tepe muže Hebrejského, jednoho z bratří jeho.
And it came to pass in those days, when Moses was grown up, that he went out unto his brethren, and looked on their burdensome labors; and he saw an Egyptian man smiting a Hebrew man, one of his brethren.
12 A sem i tam se ohlédna, vida, že žádného tu není, zabil Egyptského, a zahrabal jej v písku.
And he looked this way and that way, and when he saw that there was no one by, he smote the Egyptian, and hid him in the sand.
13 Vyšed potom druhého dne, a aj, dva muži Hebrejští vadili se. I řekl tomu, kterýž křivdu činil: Proč tepeš bližního svého?
And when he went out the second day, behold, two Hebrew men were striving together; and he said unto him that was in the wrong, Wherefore smitest thou thy fellow?
14 Kterýžto odpověděl: Kdo tě ustanovil knížetem a soudcí nad námi? Zdali zabiti mne myslíš, jako jsi zabil Egyptského? Protož ulekl se Mojžíš a řekl: Jistě známá jest ta věc.
And he said, Who made thee a chief and a judge over us? intendest thou to kill me, as thou hast killed the Egyptian! And Moses feared, and said, Surely the thing is become known.
15 A uslyšav Farao tu věc, hledal zabiti Mojžíše. Ale Mojžíš utekl od tváři Faraonovy, a bydlil v zemi Madianské; i usadil se podlé studnice.
And Pharaoh heard this thing, and he sought to slay Moses; but Moses fled from the face of Pharaoh, and tarried in the land of Midian, and he sat down by a well.
16 Kníže pak Madianské mělo sedm dcer. Kteréžto přišedše, vážily vodu, a nalívaly do koryt, aby napájely dobytek otce svého.
Now the priest of Midian had seven daughters; and they came and drew water, and filled the troughs to water their father's flock.
17 I přišli pastýři, a odehnali je. Tedy Mojžíš vstav, pomohl jim a napojil dobytek jejich.
And the shepherds came and drove them away; but Moses arose and helped them, and watered their flock.
18 A když se navrátily k Raguelovi, otci svému, řekl on: Jakž jste to dnes tak brzo přišly?
And when they came to Reuel their father, he said, Wherefore are ye come home so soon today?
19 Odpověděly: Muž Egyptský vysvobodil nás z ruky pastýřů; ano také ochotně navážil nám vody, a napojil dobytek.
And they said, An Egyptian man delivered us out of the hand of the shepherds; and he also drew water for us, and watered the flock.
20 I řekl dcerám svým: Kdež pak jest? Pročež jste pustily muže toho? Povolejte ho, ať pojí chleba.
And he said unto his daughters, And where is he? wherefore have ye left the man? call him, that he may eat bread.
21 A svolil Mojžíš k tomu, aby bydlil s mužem tím. Kterýžto dal Zeforu, dceru svou, Mojžíšovi.
And Moses was content to dwell with the man; and he gave Zipporah his daughter to Moses.
22 I porodila syna, a nazval jméno jeho Gerson; nebo řekl: Příchozí jsem byl v zemi cizí.
And she bore a son, and he called his name Gershom; for he said, I have been a stranger in a foreign land.
23 Stalo se pak po mnohých časích, že umřel král Egyptský; a synové Izraelští úpěli pro roboty, a křičeli. I vstoupil k Bohu křik jejich pro roboty.
And it came to pass in this long time, that the king of Egypt died; and the children of Israel sighed by reason of the bondage, and they cried; and their complaint came up unto God by reason of the bondage.
24 A uslyšel Bůh naříkání jejich, a rozpomenul se Bůh na smlouvu svou s Abrahamem, Izákem a Jákobem.
And God heard their groaning, and God remembered his covenant with Abraham, with Isaac, and with Jacob.
25 I vzhlédl Bůh na syny Izraelské, a poznal Bůh.
And God looked upon the children of Israel, and God took cognizance of them.
